This movie is by far one of the greatest. The music is fantastic. The comedy aspect is hilarious (imagine naming your band And And And...). Giving you a sense of the real black souls of Dublin in the bodies of working class white kids, this movie touches on the good in life, hard in life and just plain humorous side of life. Having a mom obsessed with Elvis Presley brought home great memories and Colm Meaney is the best obsessed fan ever. The soundtrack features song sung by Jimmy Rabbitt himself - you may find his voice annoying during destination anywhere, but man, that boy can sing!! The cast is original, talented and truly believable in their roles.
If you like music and comedy you will LOVE The Commitments!
